Sarasota Farms - A Community Supported Agricultural Project

Consumer Reports State That 92% Of Americans Are Concerned About Where Their Food Comes From And Food Safety.


Research from the Center For Disease Control proves that pesticides on non-organic produce are the leading source of harmful carcinogens in the average person's diet (especially true with children). Carcinogens are what cause cancer, heart disease, and many other diseases. Research from leading universities offers solid proof that eating organic produce is one of the best steps towards improving your nutrition (read more). We know you want the very best fresh produce you can find for yourself and your family, and that you care about your community. We are a community garden, consisting of a local group of concerned citizens committed to healthy food, a healthy planet and community empowerment. Fresh Produce Means Better Nutrition.

Pennsylvania State University research indicates that produce can loose up to half of its nutrients within a week after harvesting. Food in the U.S. travels an average of 1,500 miles from farm to supermarket.

We believe that receiving organic, locally grown produce is great, but we also believe that the nutrient value of your produce is equally as important. While most organic farmers just concentrate on not using chemicals, we take our approach a step further. Our farming methods focus on creating produce that has the highest nutrient value (such as adding needed amendments to the soil). This guarantees that you are getting the best benefits from everything that you eat. Here are just some of the varieties that we grow:

	Gourmet Lettuce Mixes

	Lavender Bell Peppers

	Diva Cucumbers

	Rosa Bianca Eggplant

		German Striped Tomatoes

		Genovese Basil

		Charentais Melons

		Yellow Crookneck Squash
